Assuming that you are referring to a piece of equipment designed for 60-hz power being connected to a 50-hz power line (common overseas), It depends on the application. If the load is a DC power supply, they are often rated for both 50 and 60 hz. If the load is a motor made for 60 hz, for example, it will run about 17% slower at 50 hz than at 60 hz due to the design of induction motors, and at higher current because of lower inductive reactance. If the load is fluorescent lighting, it may display an annoying flicker, and the ballasts will probably die an early death. If the load is transformer-powered, you'll have the same current problems as you get with the motor. OTOH, if you want to connect a 50-hz load to a 60-hz supply, it has its own issues. E.g., the motor will run faster and cannot be loaded as heavily. Best bet: research to see if the piece of equipment is rated for both frequencies.
What else can I help you with?
If a bulb has 50 Hz frequency and it is apply at 60 Hz frequency voltage supply then it is glow or not?
If a bulb has 50 Hz frequency and it's supply is 60 Hz frequency, it will still glow, despite the allowance of 10 HZ frequency.
What is 50 hz motor?
It is a motor where the frequency of the AC voltage is 50 cycles per second. In U.S.A. 60 Hz is standard. 50 Hz would be overseas.
What is the effect when 60 hz motor connect to 50 hz power?
When a 60 Hz motor is connected to a 50 Hz power supply, it will typically run at a lower speed, approximately 83% of its rated speed, since motor speed is proportional to the frequency of the supply. This can lead to overheating, as the motor may draw more current to maintain torque, potentially causing damage over time. Additionally, the motor may not perform efficiently, leading to reduced output and increased wear. Overall, operating a 60 Hz motor on a 50 Hz supply is generally not recommended without appropriate adjustments or modifications.
What is the industry voltage in Uganda?
240 V @ 50 Hz (US and Canada are 120 V @ 60 Hz)
What is the frequency of the secondary of a 230 volt step down transformer?
The frequency is dependant upon what electrical grid that you are connecting the transformerto. If you are connected to a 50 Hz grid, the transformer will output a voltage at 50 Hz. The same thing with the 60 Hz grid, the transformer will output a voltage at 60 Hz.
What is dsadvantages of having 50 Hz supply over 60 Hz supply?
There is no inherent disadvantage of 50 Hz compared with 60 Hz, bearing in mind that systems that run at 50 Hz are designed to run at 50 Hz.
Difference between FREQUENCY 50 Hz 60 Hz?
10 Hz 10 Hz
If a bulb has 50 Hz frequency and it is apply at 60 Hz frequency voltage supply then it is glow or not?
If a bulb has 50 Hz frequency and it's supply is 60 Hz frequency, it will still glow, despite the allowance of 10 HZ frequency.
What is the frequency of AC current in North America?
In North America 60 Hertz. Europe 50 Hertz.
What is 50 hz motor?
It is a motor where the frequency of the AC voltage is 50 cycles per second. In U.S.A. 60 Hz is standard. 50 Hz would be overseas.
What is the Hz rating on 100 Amp household service?
60 Hz in North America, 50 Hz in Europe.
Does an isolation transformer work from 50 Hz input to 60 Hz output?
Generally speaking, an isolation transformer will work pretty much the same for 50 Hertz as for 60 Hertz. There will be some slight differences, but the frequency is low enough and the the range narrow enough that the transformer will just "do its thing" regardless. Note that the isolation transformer won't change the frequency of the input. An input of 50 Hz or 60 Hz will yield an output of 50 Hz and 60 Hz respectively. No change should be expected.
Will an LCD tv 240 v 50 hz run on 240v 60 hz?
Yes !
What will happen 50 HZ motor when you will give 60 HZ?
motor will run at a faster rate.....
How does an electric clock made to operate on 60 HZ 120 V system behave if pluged into a 50 HZ 120 V system?
As clock motors are synchronous in design for a particular frequency, the 60 Hz clock will run slower on 50 Hz.

If 60 hz ac supply used in India?
Yes, in India, the standard alternating current (AC) supply frequency is 50 Hz, not 60 Hz. Devices designed for use with a 60 Hz supply may not operate optimally or safely in India without proper adaptation.
